Patient's question:
My child is 14 days old and being breastfed. I feel like the baby takes a big mouthful each time. Sometimes when lying down, he spits up, and he keeps burping. Every time we gently pat his back, it doesn't seem to work. It takes him several minutes to burp. I want to ask if it's normal for babies to burp a lot?Doctor's answer:
Think about the baby's digestive issues. In this case, you can appropriately increase probiotics and digestive aids under the guidance of a doctor in the hospital. At the same time, pay attention to keeping warm and avoid catching a cold. Feed a few times, but don't overfeed each time. It can be combined with the baby's stomach rubbing. After each feeding, stand up and gently pat the baby's back to prevent vomiting. Improper dairy products refer to dairy products in the baby's daily life that do not meet the baby's physiological and stomach requirements, especially dirty dairy products, indigestion, or using cold milk for the baby, or giving the baby cold medicine. Generally, this situation can resolve itself, so don't worry.
